Pointe du Vallonnet, Mountain summit in Savoie, France

Located in the French Alps, Pointe du Vallonnet reaches an elevation of 3,372 meters and features sharp granite peaks against the mountain landscape.

The mountain became part of Vanoise National Park in 1963, marking a significant step in preserving the natural heritage of the Savoie region.

Local mountaineers maintain several climbing routes to the summit, passing down generations of knowledge about the mountain's seasonal conditions and access points.

The ascent requires technical climbing equipment, proper physical preparation, and careful planning due to frequent weather changes at high altitudes.

The summit offers a direct view of Le Grand Bec, positioned 803 meters to the northwest, creating a natural compass point for alpine navigation.
